Merck, one of the leading manufacturers of liquid crystals, the key ingredient for all LCD-displays, invited me to speak about future ways of handling information as one of four speakers for its "Displaying Futures"-symposium on October 12th, 2011, at the German Embassy in Tokyo.
The symposium was the initial event for Merck's ongoing initiative to venture into the understanding on how designers, artists and architects could support and improve the development of innovative and competitive technology.
This could mean involving design thinking already at the planning stage of future technology concepts putting people's needs and desires at the center throughout the entire development. This can provide answers and non-orthodox solutions.
For further details about Merck's ongoing initiative and the other participants of the initial symposium visit the initiatives website on
